This is from my band- Team Smile and Nod’s album “Look Both Ways Before You Die.” Rich Ratvasky (my bandmate) created the majority of the music in our original.

WORDS-
i create new versions, to old old memories
i create new visions, to replace reality
to replace your hate
to replace your screaming and my tears
with dissociation
i’m a champ at blocking out my past
but how long will that last?

i wish i could forget pieces
i wish i could pick and choose the truth
but you said what you said
and i left that night screaming
that i am what i am
and maybe you’ll never understand
cuz i am what i am
and i’m not ashamed anymore.

but how long will that last?

and it can’t be erased
like the tattoo on my arm
and you can’t be erased
like the tattoo on my arm…

you’re my never fading scar.
you’re my never fading scar.
scar.
